[The Cipher Brief] Technological advances now allow extensive recordkeeping of peoples’ lives through social media, as well as identity verification at borders with biometrics. At the same time, the complete absence of a detailed social media presence can be a red flag, causing counterintelligence investigators to scrutinize individuals further.

Don't do Facebook/twitter. I like my privacy. Every now and then I will send a photo shopped picture to friends and fam. Just like people who paste on facebook photoshop thier wrinkles before posting.
#6
Speaking as a imaginary spy for an imaginary three letter agency, I would hope our documents division would have the wherewithal to gin up a convincing social media backstory.
Lack of social media presence is simply a sign that one has a life.

One time, in the course of conversation, I mentioned I'm not on farcebook or sh*tter. A young lady said to me "Why would I trust you then?" I replied "Your trust is needed by me how?" She was speechless.

A spy would be on Facebook and Twitter under many different aliases.

Yeah, I already lost out on a minor business opportunity two years back. After sending an email indicating my interest, the other fellow replied with a deeply suscpcious email asking who the hell I was, what was my facebook and what was my LinkedIn. After replying I had neither, that was the end of the relationship..
They just don't trust you unless you exist on their platforms. The age of trust is over. It's not coming back. Either you have a facebook/linkedin that they can see, or there will be no business. End of story.
#12
The reason they wanted to see your facebook or linkedin had nothing to do with qualifications. Your personal life, facebook friends, etc is non of their friggin business.
Excerpt:
[Hot Air] "Here is the reality: I am being singled out and treated this way because of the role I played, the actions I took, and the events I witnessed in the aftermath of the firing of James Comey. The release of this report was accelerated only after my testimony to the House Intelligence Committee revealed that I would corroborate former Director Comey’s accounts of his discussions with the President. The OIG’s focus on me and this report became a part of an unprecedented effort by the Administration, driven by the President himself, to remove me from my position, destroy my reputation, and possibly strip me of a pension that I worked 21 years to earn. The accelerated release of the report, and the punitive actions taken in response, make sense only when viewed through this lens. Thursday’s comments from the White House are just the latest example of this."
"This attack on my credibility is one part of a larger effort not just to slander me personally, but to taint the FBI, law enforcement, and intelligence professionals more generally. It is part of this Administration’s ongoing war on the FBI and the efforts of the Special Counsel investigation, which continue to this day. Their persistence in this campaign only highlights the importance of the Special Counsel’s work."

First the FBI’s own Inspector General reported allegations of misconduct, then the FBI’s own Office of Professional Responsibility recommended McCabe be canned.
All the ducks lined up neatly before Attorney General Sessions acted, strictly in accordance with applicable laws and rules. That will make it a lot fharder for former deputy director McCabe to win in court.
[The Last Refuge] Don’t be so blinded by the tripwire flares you fail to see the obvious. Within the statement from Attorney General Sessions hopefully you’ll note: "Including Under Oath"
The IG doesn’t place the internal investigative target "under oath". An outside prosecutor who is assisting the IG does. Hence Attorney General Jeff Sessions is telling us what is going on ‐ SEE HERE ‐ Just like he did before:

It's encouraging that there might actually be some swamp-draining going on in D.C. However, it is a huge swamp. You clean up one swamp only to find it is connected to lots of other inter-connected swamps.
[The Last Refuge] Former FBI Deputy Director Chris Swecker appeared for an interview with Harris Faulker to discuss the issues surrounding the IG and OPR recommendation that Asst. Deputy FBI Director Andrew McCabe needs to be fired.
Mr. Swecker notes his opinion the Inspector General report will likely be explosive: "I think you’re going to see some pure TNT come out of this IG report."
Additionally, and somewhat related, it was pointed out earlier today there is a very valid reason for AG Jeff Sessions not to appoint a Special Counsel. A review of the ideology ‐as noted within the Office of Special Counsel communications unit‐ shows a clear bias against the current administration. A bias that is NOT evident within the public communication prior to the Trump administration. The OSC has strongly expressed political views.
It is beyond likely the federal agency known as The Office of Special Counsel is every bit as politicized as the DOJ and FBI officials they would be tasked with investigating. Take a look for yourself. Therefore what AG Jeff Sessions previously explained as the process he has undertaken -bringing in an ’outside of DC’ prosecutor- begins to make more sense, albeit frustratingly methodical.

So Sleepy Sessions is conducting a criminal investigation? Not just a fishing expedition?

Dershowitz last night on Fox - McCabe was head of counter intelligence at the FBI. He must have really been in over his depth if he was so stupid as to text message this stuff.

[Victory Girls] It has come to my attention that today’s kids are seriously lacking in cultural education. It’s not their fault. It’s probably not the parents’ fault. Turner Classic Movies, the cable channel. does the best that the programmers can, but not everyone has cable. Kids today have not seen enough of the great anti-fascist movies of past American generations. Bless their hearts they don’t even really know what anti-fascism is. If they did, the Anti-Fa movement would not look like it does.
You can't have a "National Conversation on Guns" if one side insists on lying. On Facebook post after post, I read the recitation of made up facts as though they are the Gospel, and if you challenge any of them they demand you give them a recitation, backing up what you are saying.
If this is an example of how the new set of gun control laws are being made; if these are the same people who are haranguing legislators to pass even more laws set against gun owners and their God given rights, then gun grabbers are venturing into territory they don't want to be in when the truth emerges.
Pointing out any of the lies is like showing a cat a $100 dollar bill. What do you do when you have devoted your life to destroying God given rights? Do you appeal for forgiveness, or do you run and hide?
Loads.

They muse why can't we reduce our gun violence to European levels, to which they scream racist when you point out that we can if we reduce our 'diverse' population to match the European racial make up. Facts be racist don't you know.
[ARABNEWS] When it emerged last week that the Arab League ...an organization of Arabic-speaking states with 22 member countries and four observers. The League tries to achieve Arab consensus on issues, which usually leaves them doing nothing but a bit of grimacing and mustache cursing... had refused a membership request by South Sudan ‐ followed by a denial of such an application by a South Sudanese official, who said it had only asked to become an "observer" ‐ I recalled an interview I carried out before secession with Salva Kiir Mayardit, who is now the country’s prime minister.
His mastery of Arabic was not any less than any other Sudanese person. It was a long interview, in which he said that he welcomed any Arab or Moslem in South Sudan, but he spoke as well about the sense of injustice and neglect felt among Southerners toward the people of the North. When I moved on to record a TV interview, Kiir asked to do it in English. I asked him to speak in Arabic, which he speaks fluently, because the interview would be broadcast on Egyptian TV to an Arabic-speaking audience, but he insisted on English.

As you say, 49 Pan. South Sudan is Christian and animist, and entirely sub-Saharan black, which is why [north] Sudan Arabs have been hunting there for slaves instead of trying to work out a way to live together peacefully.
[FreeKorea] Last night, the U.N. Panel of Experts published its latest report. There is sufficient material in it for several posts, but some of the most alarming facts in it have to do with North Korea’s assistance to Syria with its ballistic missiles and chemical weapons, so that’s where I’ll begin.

[Foreign Policy] As the post-mortems of Mike Pompeo’s tenure as CIA director are finalized, a rough consensus has emerged. Pompeo, the conventional wisdom holds, is the rare Trump administration Cabinet official who kept his head down, focused on the mission, and did what President Donald Trump refused to do: He spoke with clarity and conviction about Russia’s ongoing attack on U.S. democracy. He was an effective, if quiet, workhorse pursuing America’s national security interests, we’ve been told, whose close relationship with the president was good for the CIA and, in turn, U.S. national security. He was a founding member of the so-called Axis of Adults, whose membership has steadily dwindled.
As is typically the case in Washington, the conventional wisdom is wrong.
Pompeo, previously a Republican congressman from Kansas, came to the CIA as a square peg in a round hole, as many of Trump’s Cabinet selections did. Unlike some of his colleagues, however, Pompeo didn’t make any effort to become more spherical. He opted to make the role as CIA director conform to him. Many of these efforts were well beyond public view, taking place in secure conference rooms in Langley or within the confines of the White House Situation Room, only occasionally ‐ and even then, subtly ‐ spilling into public view. But the largely shrouded nature of Pompeo’s leadership of the agency didn’t make it any less pernicious to the CIA ‐ its integrity, mission, and workforce.
Well before Pompeo was confirmed as CIA director in January 2017, there was every indication he would not approach the job as his predecessors had. Pompeo made a name for himself in Congress as a leading purveyor of hard-line conservative ideology and even conspiracy theories. While his firebrand reputation would have given most presidents-elect pause, Pompeo’s incendiary rhetoric ‐ especially his relentless, and not always factual, attacks on former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton in the context of the Benghazi investigation ‐ reportedly endeared him to Trump, who himself rose to prominence peddling a conspiracy theory.
Agency-watchers recognized that Pompeo’s selection was fraught, as the CIA workforce prizes its distance ‐ literal and physical ‐ from the politics of Washington. Indeed, there’s no dirtier word within Langley’s corridors than "politicization." That’s not to say that Pompeo’s tenure was doomed to failure. Previous directors ‐ from George H.W. Bush to Leon Panetta ‐ had successfully made the turn from political animal to above-it-all intelligence chief. As most CIA directors have, they checked their policy predispositions at the great seal and adopted a "just the facts" demeanor ‐ both in public and behind closed doors. Not Mike Pompeo.

There are white hats and black hats in the CIA. The black hats run drugs, launder money and do other RICA worthy activities to circumvent Congress. If ever a swamp needed draining.
[Breitbart] Special Counsel Robert Mueller intends to financially "ruin" President Donald Trump by investigating the Trump Organization’s business operations, said Rush Limbaugh on his eponymous Thursday radio show. He also rejected ubiquitous news media and political narratives framing Special Counsel Robert Mueller as a man of integrity.
Limbaugh described Washington-based political and bureaucratic interests as broadly desiring an ousting of Trump from the presidency:
They want Trump gone. They want everybody anything to do with Trump gone. They all do. Everybody at the State Department, everybody in this immediate FBI circle with Rosenstein, Murphy, and McKinnon, the Republican establishment community, Republican consultants, they want Trump gone. Mueller is the guy to do it. Mueller is carrying the water for the entire establishment in getting Trump gone. And they don’t care how they do it. And I think their objective is to ruin him.
Limbaugh accused Mueller of seeking to "nullify" Trump’s 1995 IRS claim of approximately $900 million in operational losses in order to pursue a reclamation of the money with added penalties and accrued interest:
#1
Interesting how the increased attacks on Trump (recent Roy Moore-esque whores, etc) appear to correspond with the increased pressure and exposure brought to bear on McCabe, Page, Strzok, and others.
#2
Limbaugh accused Mueller of seeking to "nullify" Trump’s 1995 IRS claim of approximately $900 million in operational losses...
This is simply further evidence that this whole investigation thing is a complete sham, or Rush is way off base here. Is Mueller really going to rewrite a sizable portion of longstanding tax & business law, not to mention ignoring the three to six year statute of limitations relating to the auditing of filed tax returns? That's not going to happen. Rush is reaching with this one.
#4
Well, of course he is, P2K - I was just pointing out that in this particular matter, Rush is speculating.
Then, as I'm writing this comment, something just popped into my head that I didn't take into account earlier - isn't Mueller now looking into Trump's business activity before he was nominated (I think I saw this on Thursday)? If he's digging into that, then this deduction's now on the table. I now hope Mueller's dumb enough to go after it and make it an issue.

[FOX] A U.S. Senate candidate in Michigan has proposed a plan to arm homeless people with shotguns in a bid to reduce crime.
Brian Ellison, a Libertarian candidate who is expected to be the party’s candidate in the upcoming midterm elections, said homeless people are often at risk of becoming victims of violent crime and one way to prevent that is by providing them with firearms.
He would be challenging Democratic incumbent Debbie Stabenow for the U.S. Senate seat in November, if he wins the Libertarian Party’s candidate.
Ellison told the Guardian that although he thinks pistols for homeless people would be ideal, due to stringent gun laws, shotguns are the only alternative for them.

Given that most of the homeless are refugees from the judiciary closed and shuttered asylums and given the number of noted shootings have been done by people of less than stable mental health, someone is lacking in the basic skills of analysis.
[The Cipher Brief] Cyber events of the past two years‐perpetrated by state actors in several notable cases, according to public statements by the U.S. and British governments‐ have demonstrated the potential for damaging impact to national security, critical infrastructures, and the global economy.
Electric power distribution, healthcare services, pharmaceutical manufacturing and global shipping have all suffered significant disruptions, in some cases requiring days to even months for full recovery. Databases with all manner of sensitive information with privacy and financial implications have been pillaged even from commercial and government organizations whose entire business models center on the protection of information.
These occurrences have become so common that we are no longer surprised, yet we continue to approach the challenge of protecting processes and data as if some magic technical solution exists for computers or networks. Networks and computers are complex technical systems that are constantly evolving and delivered through an opaque global supply chain, yet we maintain the fantasy that vulnerabilities, improper configurations and compromised sources of products and updates can be prevented, avoided or managed to an acceptable degree. And thus we have the elements of Greek tragedy: a well-meaning hero whose choices lead to bad outcomes that the audience knows to be inevitable.
The pathway to this state of affairs began for many businesses 20 to 30 years ago by replacing basic business functions‐such as typing, filing and communications‐with individual computers. Organizations consolidated devices and hooked them all together in local area networks and began to consider new ways to manage business processes.
And then they hooked all of this to the internet and made further changes to processes and developed new ways of doing business or even new kinds of businesses. As the internet developed further‐for example, with cloud computing‐they found further economies of scale and efficiency. In the course of doing all of this, they considered to some degree the new risks incurred by the exposure of systems and data to a global community, but they primarily put resources into managing just the technical flaws of computers and networks.
[AccordingToHoyt] And by "we" I mean writers and parents and teachers, and anyone who is supposed to give them an idea of how the world works.
By "children" I mean those of us who were children in the last 50, maybe the last 70 years, and although the problem is most prevalent in America, it has ‐ like most things ‐ spread from America to the rest of the world.
We’re failing our children by denying the existence of evil, or even of dysfunction with no reason other than because it exists.
...Because everything man or child or woman or possibly cat does that is evil must mean he’s either traumatized or something is wrong at the organic level. Of course there are exceptions: White men are more evil than Zionists who are the most evil there is (logic is racist!)
...Humans aren’t born angelic and perfect. Evil doesn’t grow in a soul as a result of trauma. No human being is free of evil impulses and desires, ever.
Evil, so far as it admits to a generalized definition, is unrestrained power: personal, national, global.
Evil is doing what you want to do with no restraint, and no thought for others. And it is the tendency of every human to do so, until he/she runs into obstacles and pain enough that he/she realizes the rest of the world has a vote. (On the pain, yes, you can do time outs, or, worse, verbal rants that hurt enough to make the kids stop anti-social behavior. I always thought a quick smack when they’re young enough to respond to negative stimulus is less cruel, in the end.)
...Evil exists. No matter how much you have been sinned against, there is no excuse to indulge in it. And yeah, no matter if you’ve never experienced trauma, evil is there. The creature in the space behind your eyes wants unlimited power and control. Everyone does. It needs no explanation. It just needs to be acknowledged as being there, as needing to be curbed and kept under control. Hoyt does have a knack of reducing issues to fundamentals - I guess that's why she's such a good SF author.
[PJ] WASHINGTON ‐ NFL player Benjamin Watson said school shootings, human trafficking and children losing their lives "before they get a chance to live" are tragedies that call for lawmakers and the general public to reassess how they "value life."
"Anything we can do to protect life and understand that life begins at conception and ends at death; I mean, I think obviously we vote on different things and we have to respect what people desire, that’s part of the reason the laws are the way they are now, but any way we can protect life. A lot of the time when we talk about being pro-life, when you look at what’s happening in our country, when you look at the shootings, sex trafficking, you look at mass incarceration issues, you look at all these things, they are all connected, in my opinion," Watson, who played for the Baltimore Ravens last football season and is currently a free agent, said during an interview with PJM at a recent Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs) conference on Capitol Hill.
"It’s all about how we value life and not just life before it’s born but also once it is here," he added. "So for me, it’s always about taking a holistic view of it. So it’s not tied just to abortion, but it’s also about how we value life for those that are already here, as well ‐ because I think when you do that, you also protect life before it’s born."
Watson, who delivered a speech at the March For Life last year, said that 60 million children have been aborted since Roe v. Wade, calling it an "atrocity" that largely "happens in the shadows."
"And since we can’t really see what’s happening, a lot of times, not just with this but with a lot of other things that are happening around the world, if we can’t see it, we somehow don’t feel like it’s urgent and important," he said.
Watson, who plays tight end and began his career with the New England Patriots, said his goal is to bring more public attention to issues such as abortion, violence tearing apart local communities, sex trafficking and mass incarceration.
[blogs.ScientificAmerican] Research suggests it's largely because they're anxious about their ability to protect their families, insecure about their place in the job market and beset by racial fears.
In which the bloggers started with their conclusion, then looked for published studies to support it.

But no law can address the absence of meaning and purpose that many white men appear to feel, which they might be able to gain through social connection to people who never expected to have the economic security and social power that white men once enjoyed.

As a teenager I remember going to the stacks and reading the thick older Scientific American issues. Many (most...) of the articles were beyond me but it was fascinating to see science in all its forms...
